I've never hired anyone for writing, but will check my budget to see if it might be possible to work something out. I appreciate your intelligence and knowledge. I'll let you know if I can swing something.

I'm looking to expose my blog to new audiences and write content for other bloggers.  I'm fairly well-versed in the mechanics of investing, and can cover topics including:

  • Retirement planning and strategy
  • Some tax issues involving investments and retirement accounts
  • Selecting mutual funds and exchange-traded funds
  • Asset allocation and diversification

 

Topics outside the realm of investing – budgeting, couponing, and insurance, for example – are beyond my capacity.  Investing related articles can be written to fit a particular view on investing – I won't take an activist view on a passive investing blog.   *I don't know anything about Canadian investments, markets, or tax laws and retirement issues.*
Primarily, my goal is to reach new readers by posting routinely on a few other, well-trafficked blogs.  Ideally, I'm looking to do as many as one post per week on as many as four different blogs.  
I am most interested in:
  1. The ability to link to my blog 1-2 times in each post.
  2. Writing for blogs that have an audience and feedburner subscribers.   
  3. Writing 1 post per week for your blog.
  4. Writing for someone who can provide topics/key ideas they want to have covered on their site.
That is to say that a $50/post opportunity from a new blog – though a very good rate – is not as attractive as a $15/post opportunity from an established and well-trafficked blog.  I''m not entirely in tune with the current staff posting going rate.  As an aside, I am most interested in opportunities spanning 3-4 months.  
If you have any interest in well-written and researched investing material for your site or sites, do please contact me.  The quickest way to reach me would be by email.  The MoneyMamba contact form is a piece of cake: http://moneymamba.com/contact/ 
P.S. I'm operating as an LLC in the United States, so there won't be any complications at tax-time for W9s, etc.
